"Pure space has neither colour nor shape. And it cannot be stained either black or white. So also, mind's essence is beyond both colour and shape. And it cannot be sullied by black or white deeds." — Tilopa



16th Karmapa Ranjung Rigpe Dorje (1923–1981)

This ordinary mind of nowness is untouched by fixations on birth and liberation.
Its unceasing manifestation is unshaken by projections.

The realm of Samsara and Nirvana appear simultaneously —
This is the effortless path of the marvellous mahamudra.

Seeing the self-existing ground of insight,
The gaits of Samsara and Nirvana fall into step,
And the apparent confusion of the three worlds collapses into space.

The three bodies of enlightenment are arrived at in a natural state,
So why look forward to future results?
This is the special teaching of the Kagyupas
Thinking on that, I emulate my forefathers.
